In Episode 120, Quinn discusses retraining our mind to understand and operate in the discontinuity we are in. Let’s get META.
HIs guest is Alex Steffen, a longtime climate reporter and futurist, as well as writer of the forthcoming book The Snap Forward.
The world as we know it is changing – in fact, it’s already changed. The changes brought on by human-made effects on climate are now the context in which we live our lives. Whether you’ve been fighting the powers behind climate change for years or are just now finding your place, what comes next?
Step one: accept that everything you ever thought you knew about the world has changed. Not an easy task, but very soon we’re all going to be forced to reconcile with our situation – whether we like it or not. The thing to remember is not how bad things are, but how good they can get – and how quickly – if we just face up to reality. It all starts with acknowledging where we are. Then we can snap forward.
